Early signs point to yes, but no promises yet.

I can, but if **Aguecheek** is going to make it, that’s 5. I may show up for moral support.

Actually, it’s my Goode Ladye Wyfe as well, so we’ll be 2 teams regardless.

Incidentally, we’re in.

I’m a “maybe” – I’ve been sick this weekend, so it’ll depend on how I feel tonight. I might be able to make tomorrow, too, so we’ll see how it all goes.

I’m planning on working late today, so I’m not sure if I can make it. If I either get a lot done or I’m too annoyed at my lack of progress to stay, I may get out of here in time to meet you at the Emmigrant.

Tomorrow, I’m afraid, will follow the same decision-tree.

Just a bump for those who didn’t see this yesterday.

We’re in.  
**Cervaise** is in.  
**Saltire** ’s a solid maybe, as is **stargazer**

Anyone else? We have yet to see the promised return of **Anastasaeon** , and **inkysplotchy** has been off doing Mentor of the Blade kind of thing.

**inky** and I played last night at the Emigrant. We ended up being last place among the A teams, and beaten by the winning B team.

What killed us was the final 40-points round, where you get points for answering correctly and lose them for answering incorrectly. This time, blank answers counted as wrong; we ended up earning all of 6 points total thanks to bad guesses.

A reminder: I will be hosting next week’s Trivia Night at the Old Pequliar. Tuesday.

Come and point and laugh.

Well, I for one do not want to miss the debut of a newbie quizmaster.

I may be working late-ish, but I’m fairly certain I’ll make it to the Old Pequliar by 7 or so.

I, unfortunately, _will_ be missing out on the debut of a newbie quizmaster. However, I’ve looked over his questions for the fun of it, and you guys are in for a ride.

Good luck!

I cannot miss **lissener** ’s quizmastery debut, though I probably won’t be early to the pub. With any luck, [this](http://www.seattlest.com/archives/2006/03/21/tuesday_night_trivia_at_the_old_pequliar.php) will pump up the turnout.

See y’all in Ballard.

Wouldn’t miss it for any amount of money.

Er, I mean, I wouldn’t miss it for the amount of money I’d likely be offered to miss it. I mean, I’m not a complete dope. 🙂
